Motivation Breakthrough

What does it take to motivate your child?  What motivates you?  Family Literacy Center will present a workshop called

“The Motivation Breakthrough!” What does it take to motivate the “forgotten” student that traditional methods just don’t seem to reach?  Educator Richard Lavoie draws on decades of teaching experience to demonstrate six basic motivational styles and strategies for inspiring the most withdrawn and reluctant student.  In this lively workshop presentation for parent and teachers, based on his recent book the motivation Breakthrough: Six Secrets to Turning on the Turned-Out Child, Lavoie touches all the bases.

Some strategies are simple-using clearer, more precise language-while others take time, patience, and planning. Each one is well worth the effort.  But be forewarned: Lavoie’s enthusiasm is contagious! This workshop will be held:

Thanks to our partnership with the Lapeer District Library and other funders, we were able to offer Playgroups for families with young children. This program targets children from birth to age 5 and their parents. At playgroups, we facilitate learning and developmental activities while having fun. The program includes activities in a structured and predictable manner which help develop critical skills for young children. This group meets once a week for six weeks. Spots fill up fast so register today!

Kindergarten Readiness was a new program we offered in 2009 funded through a Great Parents and Great Start Lapeer grant. This program offers information, instructional materials and books to 4 and 5 year olds preparing for kindergarten and their parents. Families were able to try out activities which demonstrate if a child has critical school readiness skills. Parent evaluations were extremely positive for this pilot program, and we hope to be able to offer this program long into the future.
